I am in the process of adding a second reactor to my tank for carbon. The first one is for phosphate media. I'm also adding a UV sterilizer. instead of getting multiple power heads to run these items I decided to build a manifold and run everything off of one larger pump. (mag 7) This cost me...

I know some of you run your own aquarium businesses on the side or as a full time job. I'm considering doing this more so out of curiosity than anything. What insight can any of you give in starting up something like this? Keep in mind this will be a very small time operation focusing mostly on...

I bought a bright blue acro with purple tips last Friday. Last night around 9 pm I noticed it was RTN'ing on one of the stalks from the top down. I fragged the entire branch off that was RTN'ing and disposed of it. The only thing I could think of that would cause this is the lugols i dipped it...

For those of you that deer hunt with a shotgun what is your favorite slug and why? I'll start, mine is the Remington Copper Solid.

Hey gang do any of you make your own jerky? If so do you know if it's ok to make it without using a mix or meat cure? I made up some last night and made my own marinade. I didn't use any meat cure though, only soy sauce, worcestershire, and a little bit of lemon juice. Oh, and some cracked black...

Do you guys think a TDS reading of 16 ppm would be enough to fuel hair algae growth in the sand bed?

Well I made a comment on an older thread in here about the older guy that shot two people in Texas. Basically my comment was if someone broke in my house I would not hesitate to kill them. Well I got home from work Monday and someone had broken in our house in broad daylight. It's Karma man...

Hey all, I have two used overflow boxes for sale along with a pondmaster 750 gph return pump. The overflow boxes are rated at either 600 or 650 GPH each I can't really remember. Pump matches both overflows nicely but they could handle more flow if needed. Price is $110 for all three pieces plus...

It's been quite a while since I've posted on this board but I figured it's a good time for an update. I tore down my 180 last night to cure an algae problem I've been dealing with for the past year. NOTHING would fix this. I've tried everything and have gotten the problem narrowed down to a bad...

Anyone??? I shot one last week with my bow. My first turkey and I'm proud to have done it the hard way. 22 pound bird with a 12" beard and 28 mm spurs.

Hey all of you Vette owners I'm thinking about taking the plunge. I've wanted one since before I could drive and I feel like I'm at a point in my life where it makes sense. I'm thinking about a low miles yellow C5 coupe. Must be a 6 speed. Any insight anyone would like to offer? I know this is...

Anyone ever had a dog injure or break their tail? Our dog started whining on the way home from the lake yesterday and he acted like it bothered him to sit on his butt. When we got home he was runnign around with his tail between his legs. He won't sit on his butt and he won't let anyone mess...

Anyone know if 2 650 GPH over flow boxes will keep up with a Mag 18? I know the math doesn't suggest so but the pump will have 4 to 5 feet of head which should cut down the flow to 1150 or so GPH...

Hello all. I have a bit of a "game" for you. Currently I have a pondmaster 750 GPH pump as my return on my 180. A friend of mine sold me a Mag 18 that I'm going to use in it's place but I think I'm going to have to add a second overflow box to keep up with the new pump. Here's the game! Help me...

Anyone running a KNOP-C reactor? I've had mine up and going for about 3 weeks now and my pH is staying at 7.8 and my calcium won't go above 320??? Any ideas or suggestions?

I finally got my fuge up and running this weekend. I made it from a rubbermaid container. It worked out pretty good. Here are some pictures. A guy I work with is moving to texas so he sold me 100 pounds of LR for $100 and he threw in a brand new overflow box, some cheato, and some mangroves. Not...

I've had low calcium levels for the past few months despite weekly 10% water changes. They were at 350 but I checked last night and calcium was at 320!!! I don't think weekly water changes are going to help at this point unless I do a 25% change once per week. I broke down today and bought a...
